The Fourth of July staples are in fine form: Corn is coming primarily from Florida and Georgia. Sweet and juicy watermelon, from Texas, Louisiana and Mexico. And crawfish are available, although this traditionally marks the beginning of the end of their season.

Making a red, white and blue dessert for the Fourth of July? Use beautiful Texas blueberries for one component.
